I suppose I can live with the Mail.app behavior sans the prefix
setting in the namespace section, but it's not ideal. I'd really
like to know why Mail.app has a problem with this! Why are the
folders there but the contents empty? Is there any way to increase
the logging that Dovecot does to understand what the Mail.app
client is sending and why Dovecot is sending back that error?
I did a little packet snooping and I think I might have discovered
what's going on. Apparently, Mail.app uses mailbox names like INBOX/
Foo and INBOX/Bar while Thunderbird uses mailbox names like INBOX.Foo
and INBOX.Bar. IOW, adding these two namespace sections seems to
support both clients:
# For Mail.app namespace private { separator = / prefix = INBOX/ inbox = yes } # For Thunderbird namespace private { separator = . prefix = INBOX. inbox = yes }
I need to play with this some more to be sure. Can anybody
corroborate this? If true, the information should probably be added
to the Dovecot wiki.
